FAQs

Are these boots waterproof?

No, the Grader Chukka is made from suede, which is porous. While a protector spray will help repel light moisture, they should not be submerged in water.

Can I remove the footbed?

The molded PU footbed is designed to provide optimal support as part of the internal construction; it is best to leave it in place.

Are these suitable for heavy construction work?

No, these are fashion-forward lifestyle boots. For heavy industrial work, consider CAT's dedicated safety-toe work boot lines.

How should I clean water stains on the suede?

Lightly dampen the entire surface of the boot with a suede cleaner or a very light misting of water, then let it dry naturally to ensure an even finish.

What size should I choose?

These boots generally follow standard UK sizing; if you plan on wearing thick winter socks, you may want to consider a slightly looser fit.

Troubleshooting

Surface dirt accumulation on suede

Use a soft suede brush to gently stroke the affected area in one direction to lift dirt from the fibers.

Boots feel stiff after storage

Gently flex the sole and wear them for a short period to allow the natural heat from your feet to soften the upper material.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated and versatile aesthetic for both professional and casual environments
  • Highly comfortable footbed suitable for all-day wear
  • Effective odor control via antimicrobial lining
  • Reliable traction on urban surfaces

Cons

  • Suede material is sensitive to water and mud
  • Requires specialized cleaning tools for maintenance
  • Not intended for heavy-duty industrial work environments

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your CAT Grader boots last, begin by applying a high-quality suede protector spray before the first wear to create a barrier against dust and moisture. Because these are made of premium suede, they should be cleaned using a specialized suede brush to remove loose dirt and revitalize the nap of the material.

Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat and water immersion can permanently damage the suede fibers and adhesive bonds. If the boots become saturated with water, stuff them with newspaper to help them retain their shape while air-drying in a cool, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight or heaters.
